Hootenanny numbers are in! We had over 100 folks in attendance with 107 tickets sold (67 in advance, 40 at the door), not to mention the 16 volunteers that were present to make the event happen. Crushed our goal of getting 70 folks out.
Our fundraising goals were to spend $2000, raise $6000 to come out $4000 in the green. Smoked those goals by spending less and raising more! We brought in $6832 and spent $1312 for a total of $5520 brought in to OOFD! More than $1500 over our goal. I totally forgot to turn on the fun meter at The Hideout, but I’d venture to say we would have broken it. Because damn that was fun and that was goal #1. Such a good time. And it's all thanks you all y’all for helping hype it and get folks out and generally making OOFD a community that folks want to be a part of and show up for and support. So proud of us and that’s just one event that didn’t even include bikes or camping. Now here comes the real deal, a season of bike camping! SHARE THIS WITH A FRIEND

We rely on our superb local business and community sponsors to hold the event free to members and going Powerful. It's a Newport custom for about 40 years and its portion of what make Newport a particular place to reside and work.
